RobBright 35 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Christ - now this is a major headache. Am very tempted to go this weekend, but snow festa is on at pan pacifico Yokohama. Perhaps the 3rd is on?! Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 You would make the trip from Yokohama for 600m of a bit of snow and lots of artificial? Link to post Share on other sites
seemore 66 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Muika Sure beats last year we were all getting worried alot later than this. Bring it on. Looking forward to more photos. Seemore Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 I can't quite remember being 'worried' last year, seemore. Look at the archives, Kagura opened the same time last season. The same. Lets not get too carried away! Link to post Share on other sites
seemore 66 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Can't help myself I am sure we didn't have these snowfalls last year. In saying that I wasn't looking at Kagura. My mistake sorry. Seemore Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 It is raining here. Just don't get carried away thinking things that aren't really happening, that's all I'm saying. Well, unless you get something out of that. Think of me as an antidote to the marketing bull that some other people endlessly spout. Don't get me wrong I am excited as anyone when winter arrives and I can get out there on my skis with my camera..... Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Ah its artificial? Didn't know that, perhaps because I was prematurely excited by the thought of some snow action clouded my better judgement. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 A lot will depend on tonight I suppose but the blowers are out in force backing up the snow that is up there. Tomorrow looks sunny on the forecast. You never know, might dump enough for happy faces tonight. Of course, I'd be more than happy to hear that. Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 All that faffing about on the bus and everything puts me off. Just not worth it for a narrow short run. I think I can wait until things get kicked off properly. Link to post Share on other sites
tokabochi 9 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 It is trying to snow here in Tokamachi, not quite. So hopefully they will get some cm up on the slopes before tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
